• Drawing Integers in Forms
    7 replies, posted
Hey guys, a while ago I decided I wanted to learn how to make actuall applications, so I decided to try C#. I already had a reasonable amount of HTML, PHP, and SQL knowledge, so I thought it wouldn't be too hard. Well, it isn't actually hard, but I can't seem to find what I'm looking for on Google. How does one draw an integer, as DrawString only works for strings. So, is there a way to directly draw an int, or do I have to convert it to a string first?
Are you talking about rendering with Graphics objects? Indeed you need a string when rendering text. Converting numbers to textual representations is easy, for simple base 10, just do: [cpp] string text = Convert.ToString(123); //'text' now contains "123" [/cpp]
-snip- Late
Easier still, use ToString. [code] int a = 24; string b = a.ToString(); [/code]
Okay, I knew I could convert to string, but was wondering whether or not I had to convert, thanks guys!

[QUOTE=turb_;21065333]what[/QUOTE] He didn't understand whether or not he had to convert it to a string before printing it into the form... makes sense to me.
